Rahul Gupta

HI Folks!!

After reading posts that talked about 'where BBN is headed', and after noting the valuable initiative taken by our dear friend & fellow-ryzer Musten, I thought it would be ideal to have just one thread where everyone could post:

1) Jokes that lighten your day!

2) Inspirational Messages that brighten your day!

3) Any other Message that you feel (while posting) is not 'directly' related to Business.

I know a lot of you may have your own definitions of 'Messages not directly related to Business', but then, C'mon, this is a self-regulated network. So, if you think your message is not directly related to business, you can post it on this thread, otherwise, go ahead, you could post it on the network, as you generally do.

I strongly appeal to everyone on this network to make sure they use the respective threads (for Computers & Peripherals, for Real Estate & Accomodation, for Recruitments, for Events, and now for Jokes, etc.) in order to enable this network become more efficient, more useful and more relevant to its members.

I hope this helps...

CHEERS!

:o)

BRAVO Rahul!

So, here is what simplicity means...Did you know this? This is real!

One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management techniques was the case of the empty soap box, which occurred in one of Japan's biggest cosmetics companies. The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soap box that was empty.
Immediately the authorities isolated the problem to the assembly line, which transported all the packaged boxes of soap to the delivery department. For some reason, one soap box went through the assembly line empty. Management asked its engineers to solve the problem.

Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the soap boxes that passed through the line, to make sure they were not empty. No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent whoopee amount of time and money to do so.

But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with the same problem, he did not get into the complications of X-rays, etc. but instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong industrial electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan on, and as each soap box passed the fan, it simply blew the empty boxes out of the line !

Great idea Rahul! I'll begin this thread with one that I consider a classic joke..

This joke is called "Sip the Vodka"

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak.
After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done.

The monsignor replied, " When I am worried about getting nervous On the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip."

So next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice.

At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink.

He proceeded to talk up a storm.

Upon his return to his office after the mass, he found the following note on the door:

1. Sip the vodka, don't gulp.

2. There are 10 commandments, not 12.

3. There are 12 disciples, not 10.

4. Jesus was consecrated, not constipated.

5. Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass.

6. We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C. The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior and the spook.

7. David slew Goliath, he did not kick the shit out of him.

8. When David was hit by a rock and was knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass.

9. We do not refer to the cross as the "Big T."

10. When Jesus broke the bread at the last supper he said, "take this and eat it for it is my body." He did not say " Eat me" .

11. The Virgin Mary is not called " Mary with the Cherry,.

12. The recommended grace before a meal is not: Rub-A-Dub-Dub thanks for the grub, Yeah God.

13. Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at ST.Peter's not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.

BUSH CREDENTIALS
Einstein dies and goes to heaven. At the Pearly Gates, Saint Peter tells him, "You look like Einstein, but you have NO idea what some people will do to sneak into Heaven. Can you prove who you really are?"
Einstein ponders for a few seconds and asks, "Could I have a blackboard and some chalk?"
Saint Peter snaps his fingers and a blackboard and chalk instantly appear. Einstein proceeds to describe with arcane mathematics and symbols his theory of relativity.
Saint Peter is suitably impressed. "You really ARE Einstein!" he says. "Welcome to heaven!"

The next to arrive is Picasso. Once again, Saint Peter asks for credentials.
Picasso asks, "Mind if I use that blackboard and chalk?"
Saint Peter says, "Go ahead."
Picasso erases Einstein's equations and sketches a truly stunning mural with just a few strokes of chalk.
Saint Peter claps. "Surely you are the great artist you claim to be!" he says. "Come on in!"

Then Saint Peter looks up and sees George W. Bush. Saint Peter scratches his head and says, "Einstein and Picasso both managed to prove their identity. How can you prove yours?"
George W. looks bewildered and says, "Who are Einstein and Picasso?"
Saint Peter sighs and says, "Come on in, George."

an old one...

A bus stops and two Italian men get on. They sit down and engage in an animated conversation.
The lady sitting behind them ignores them at first, but her attention is galvanized when she hears one of the men say the following:

"Emma come first.
Den I come.
Den two asses come together.
I come once-a-more.
Two asses, they come together again.
I come again and pee twice.
Then I come one lasta time."
"You foul-mouthed swine, " retorted the lady indignantly. "In this country we don't talk about our sex lives in public!"

"Hey, coola down lady," said the man.
"Who talkin' abouta sexa? I'm a justa tellin' my frienda how to spella Mississippi."

Our dear fellow-ryzer Anneke "Golden Inspiration" New Delhi may have missed our thread. So, I am posting it for Anneke here, because it belongs here.

======================================================
Motivation:

When the door of happiness closes,
another one opens


but often times we look so long
at the closed door

that we don't see the one
which has been opened for us.

Don't dwell on the past when things go wrong.
Look for the opened doors all around you!

Have a nice day :)

Ashwath is busy typing away on BBN and his phone rings.

 

 

Ashwath:  Hello, Ashwath here!!

 

Voice: Hey Ashwath, kaise ho yaar??  Musten here.

 

Ashwath: Arre Musten!! Am fine boss, how are you?

 

Musten:  Kya bolun Ashwath, mere tho haal bahut burra hai yaar!!

 

Ashwath:  Kyun, kya huva?  Is there some problem after the mixer we had where Sunila was talking away about you with stars in her eyes?

 

Musten:  Oh no Ashwath, that is not a problem.  I have a date with Sunila this evening, but the problem is this SU-BBN cricket match boss!

 

Ashwath: Hey,the match will be fun Musten, why should you worry?  Do you have some other morning date on that day?

 

Musten:  Mazak math karo Ashwath.  I still don't have a full team boss!!

 

Ashwath: Oh, am sorry to hear that boss, but dont worry.  Main hoon na!!  How many players are needed in a cricket team?

 

Musten:  WHAT???????????????

 

Ashwath: Errrrr, dont you have 6 players Musten?

 

Musten: I HAVE EIGHT!!!

 

Ashwath:  Then why do you worry?  

 

Musten: Huh?  Why worry?  What else should I do?

 

Ashwath:  Arre, Musten as we are talking I just saw the BBN posts.  Pradeep's team has 5 and Dinesh is with no players at all.

 

Musten: Yeah yeah, I know that.  Dinesh is going to bat 11 times and also bowl all the overs.

 

Ashwath: You also do the same thing for those who are short Musten! Problem solved!

 

Musten: Arrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!  Why did I call you?  I thought..

 

Ashwath: Take it easy boss!! Where are you taking Sunila for the date today?

 

Musten:  Look Ashwath!  My BP is going up, I need players and you..

 

Ashwath:  Ok ok boss, dont worry.  I will ask Vince to join your team.  I know him and have his number also.

 

Musten:  What? Vince?  I need someone with two fit hands and someone who can weild a bat, not a digital camera!!  And he is not good with the camera as well, the photos he took on Tuesday suck!!

 

Ashwath: Now look Musten, that is not fair!  You come without proper make up and blame my buddy Vince for that?  You better be careful, for he has a Colt Peacemaker too!!  I just saw the pictures of that gun!

 

Musten: Arre, forget Vince yaar.  I want someone serious, not someone who will take bad pictures and then go write conversations.  

 

Ashwath: Errrr how many players you said you need?  Two more, right?

 

Musten: Ashwath!!  Cricket needs 11 players boss, and some substitutes also.  I don't think our guys will have the stamina to run around for 7 overs!!!

 

Ashwath: Oh my god!!  Seven overs? Even the World Cup is not played that way right?

 

Musten:  DAMMIT!!!  What did I get into here!!!  Look Aswath!!  I need players yaar, and this is a knock-out format also!!

 

Ashwath:  Ohhh!!  There is boxing also is it?  I didnt know that Musten. Dont worry, I am very good at boxing, take me in your team

 

Musten:  Arrrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!  

 

Slams the phone down.  Taps his beard and then smiles.  Dials again.

 

 

Soumen is relaxing and thinking of his visitor from Mumbai who will join on Friday - uses his burning cigarette to light another cigarette as the phone rings.

 

 

Soumen: Soumen here.

 

Musten: Hey Soumen!! Musten here!! Nice meeting you on Tuesday dada!!  Kaise ho?

 

Soumen:  Ahhh Musten!!!  How are you doing?  Very nice meeting you too!!!

 

Musten:  I need your help Soumen, for this cricket match. I am very keen on winning this tournament and, the problem you know..................

 

Soumen:  Ok ok, I understand, you have a very weak team, and you want my help to fix this match.

 

Musten: huh?

 

Soumen: Ok ok, I am the wicket-keeper na, I can do a lot of things for you.  How about  hmmmm, lets fix five hundred for dropped catches, seven hundred fifty for missed stumping and fifty bucks for every bye.

 

Musten:  WHAT????  No wonder you took hundred bucks for one coke from me at Opus!!  Look here boss, I want some help to get players in my side.  I am finding it very difficult to get eleven guys.

 

Soumen: Ohhhhh  you have something else here.  Tsk tsk.  Anyway, dont worry boss, I will fix........................

 

Musten: Look yaar, first let me get players, then we can discussing fixing.

 

Soumen: I was telling I can fix a good player for you boss, chill now.

 

Musten: Oh very good, tell me.  But dont give me Vince's name!!

 

Soumen: Arre, what are you talking!  The BCCI annual general meeting is going to be held na..

 

Musten:  BCCI meeting?  What has that got to do with this game?

 

Soumen: Look boss, be patient ok?  I have been talking to a lot of people, and it is now very sure that Dalmiya group will lose.

 

Musten: huh?  So?  What does that have to do with our game?

 

Soumen:  (blowing smoke rings and breaking them by shoving a finger inside the ring)  Fantastic!!!!

 

Musten:  What? Fantastic?

 

Soumen:  Oh, this ring was real good boss

 

Musten:  Ring? !@#$@!%!!!!! Which side of the bed did I wake up from this morning??

 

Soumen:  See Musten, Dalmiya is going to lose and the Pawar group will be in power.

 

Musten: What has this got to do with the game here Soumen?  What have you drinking early morning?

 

Soumen: Chillax man!!  Listen to me.

 

Musten:  Ok ok, (wondering who he has to call next)

 

Soumen: Tell me, what happens if Pawar comes to power?

 

Musten: huh?  Mujhe pagal math banavo dada!!

 

Soumen: See, you are not understanding at all.  If Pawar comes to power, there will be a new selection committee!

 

Musten: How will that help me?  I have no selection problem, I just need anyone with hands and legs now!!!

 

Soumen: You are very impatient Musten.  See, once the new selection committee comes in, they will kick out Ganguly.  I know the politics in India cricket man!!!  (beams happily)

 

Musten: Look man, let them kick out Ganguly, I dont care what happens.  I need players..

 

Soumen:  See, you dont get me at all. I know Ganguly very well from my Calcutta days.  Ganguly will be coming back, and I will get him to come and play for your team on Saturday!!

 

Musten:  WHAT?????????????? GANGULY???????????????????  Soumen you mad man!!!  I need someone who can play cricket and help me win the game dammit!!  Not Saurav Ganguly!!!!  

 

 

Slams the phone down in disgust.

Venugopal,

I think I should respond to your post since u seem to have got it all wrong

1. Most people would agree with me that the board was being flooded with the same Spam that we get everyday in our mails.

2. I responded in this thread to Musten's post to give another common illustration about the simplicity of the solutions to problems.

3. BBN is one of the few networks that have been primarily focussed on business. The sanctity should remain that way. I too have posted an odd "funny stuff" when things have gotten too boring on BBN. Maybe you can search the archives! Btw I do have a lot of fun too. Well, chek some of the postings in June/July !! Hope people will still remember the contest that myself and Vincent sponsored during the Ladies night out!!

4. My point has always been that there are other networks to discuss light hearted things or read forwards etc... Why spoil a business network for that! All you have to do is join another network. You can find most of my jokes/oneliners etc.. mostly on other networks which are meant for that!! Most people here on BBN who are members of those networks will vouch for that!!

5. I have been a member of BBN from the day I joined Ryze. Thats more than 2 years. There have been instances where BBN was moderated so that people dont flood the board with unwanted posts!!So this isnt the first time someone raised voices.

And forgive us our triglycerides,

Gautam:

The freeway shoulders are built with different material. The moment car tyres touch it, you feel/hear a loud jarring noise. The intent is to warn the driver that she/he is veering away from the driving lane. And maximum driving deaths in US occur on account of drivers falling asleep at the wheel - not drunken driving or any other reason.

It is quite possible that the shoulders are not conducive for driving a vehicle.

HEMANTH KUMAR
Hi All,


A keen immigrant Indian lad applied for a salesman's job at a London's premier downtown department store. Infact it was the Biggest store in the world - you could get anything there.

The boss asked him,"Have you ever been a salesman before?"
"Yes, I was a salesman in India", said the lad.

The boss liked the cut of him and said, "You can start tomorrow and I'll come and see you."

The day was long and arduous for the young man, but finally 5:00 came around. The boss duly came up and asked, "How many Sales did you make today?". "One" said the young salesman.
"Only one?" blurted the boss, "Most of my staff make 20 or 30 sales a day.

How much was the sale worth??."
"Three hundred thousand, three hundred and thirty four pounds" said the young Indian.

"How did you manage that?" asked the flabbergasted boss.

"Well", said the salesman, "this man came in and I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium hook and finally a really large hook. Then I sold him a small fishing line, a medium one and a huge big one.

I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast. I said he would probably need a boat, so I took him down to the boat department and sold him that twenty foot schooner with the twin engines.

Then he said his Volkswagon probably wouldn't be able to pull it, so I took him to the car department and sold him the new Deluxe Cruiser"

The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment, "You sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook?".

"No" answered the salesman, "he came in to buy a box of Sanitary napkins for his wife and I said to him, 'Your weekend's screwed, you may as well go fishing.'"

THAT IS SOLUTION SELLING !!

Hmmm, but do you think Autodriver Raja who is fleeing a hurricane and has been on the road for 15 hours will give a flying frig about the jarring noise (which is more evident at high speed). He'd be cutting in on the inside every time he can! Aren't there also non-ribbed shoulders for emergency vehicles? Haha that would be a fun drive to the hospital otherwise!

Someone else please refine it further if I missed some spellings :-)

"Can you read this? Only smart people can. I could not believe that I could actually understand what I was reading. The phenominal power of the human mind, according to a research at Cambridge University, it doesn't matter in what order the letters in a word are, the only importnat thing is that the first and the last letter be in the right place. The rest can be a total mess and you can still read without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read every letter by itself, but the word as whole. Amazing huh? yeah and I always thought spelling was important!. If you can read this pass it on.."

I just tried typing the above as I read the message! It is very true and is very much evident in the online communication these days especially on emails and forums.

Thanks for posting the same. It was a fun game.

Title : - Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!


A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo despite the
fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating
car accident.The boy began lessons with an old
Japanese judomaster. The boy was doing well, so he
couldn'tunderstand why, after three months of training
themaster had taught him only one move.

"Sensei," the boy finally said, "Shouldn't I be
learning more moves?"
"This is the only move you know, but this is the only
move you'll ever need to know," the sensei replied.

Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher,
the boy kept training. Several months later, the
sensei took the boy to his first tournament.

Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two
matches.The third match proved to be more difficult,
but after some time, his opponent became impatient and
charged;the boy deftly used his one move to win the
match.

Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the
finals. This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger,
and moreexperienced. For a while, the boy appeared to
be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt,
the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop
the match when the sensei intervened. "No," the sensei
insisted, "Let him continue."

Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a
critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the
boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the
match and the tournament. He was the champion. On the
way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every move in
each and every match. Then the boy summoned the
courage to ask what was really on his mind.

"Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only
one move?" "You won for two reasons," the sensei
answered. "First, you've almost mastered one of the
most difficult throws in all of judo. And second, the
only known defense for that move is for your opponent
to grab your left arm."

The boy's biggest weakness had become his
biggest strength. "Sometimes we feel that we have
certain weaknesses and we blame god, the circumstances
and our self for it but we never know that our
weakness can become our strength one day. Each of us
is special and important,so never think you have any
weakness, never think of pride or pain, just liveyour
life to its fullest and extract the best out of it.

Why Women Lie!

One day, a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river And her thimble fell into the river.

When she cried out, the Lord appeared and asked,"Why are you crying?" The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water and she needed the thimble to make her living.

The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden thimble.
" Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked.The seamstress replied, "No."

The Lord again went down and came up with a silver thimble. "Is this your thimble?"
Again the seamstress replied, "No."

The Lord went down again and came up with a wooden thimble. "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. "The seamstress replied, "Yes."

The Lord was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all the three thimble to keep. And the seamstress went home happy.

Some time later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the riverbank and her husband fell into the river.

When she cried out the Lord again appeared and asked her, "Why are you crying?"
"Oh, Lord, my husband has fallen into the water!"

The Lord went down into the water and came up with Mel Gibson. "Is this your husband?" the Lord asked."Yes," cried the seamstress.

The Lord was furious, "You lied! That is an untruth!"
The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding. You see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would have come up with Tom Cruise. Then if I said 'no' to him you would have come up with my husband.Had I then said 'yes' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor woman and not able to take care of all three husbands, so THAT'S WHY I said yes to Mel Gibson."

Moral of this story is:
Whenever a woman lies, it is for a good and honorable reason for the benefit of others.

Want to Borrow Dog??

A man was leaving a cafe with his morning coffee when he noticed a most
unusual funeral procession. A funeral coffin was followed by a second one
about 50 feet behind the first. Behind the second coffin was a solitary
man walking with a black dog. Behind him was a queue of 200 men walking in
single line.

The man couldn't stand his curiosity. He approached the man walking with
the dog, "I am so sorry for your loss, and I know now is a bad time to
disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this with so many of you
walking in single line. Whose funeral is it?"

The man replied, "Well, that first coffin is for my wife."The inquisitive
man asked, "What happened to her?" The man replied, "My dog attacked and
killed her." He inquired further, "Well, who is in the second coffin?" The
man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the
dog attacked and killed her also."

A thoughtful moment of silence passes between the two men.

Then the first one asks in excitement "Can I borrow the dog?"

The man replied "Please join the queue..."

During an International conference, three scientists, an American, a German, and an Indian, were talking and bragging about the technological advances their respective countries have achieved in the field of medicine.

The American said "In Washington, there was a baby boy born without arms. so we attached artificial arms on him. And now that he's grown up and became a professional boxer and a gold medalist in the Olympics!"

The German replied, "That's nothing compared to what we have achieved. Back in Berlin, there was a baby girl born without legs so we attached a pair of artificial legs on her. Now she is a three-time Olympics marathon gold medalist!"

The Indian interjected, "Is that all you have achieved just gold medalists?

In Patna, Bihar, we had a baby boy born without a HEAD! We attached a COCONUT and he has grown up and now he is the railway minister of India!!

Being a Bangalorean and having the national team’s captain can have some advantages!!! After several attempts, one finally caught up with Rahul Dravid at Chennai last night.

Me: Hello Rahul!!

RD: Hello, who is this?

Me: No no don’t worry, not a bookie!!! We had met some years ago at the KSCA Club but you wouldn’t probably remember me.

RD: OH!! What is this call about?

Me: Well Rahul, with all the talk about Ganguly’s return….

RD: No such questions please!!!! Else I will disconnect!!

Me: Oh no!! Please don’t!! It’s taken ages and I had a difficult time getting your number through Anil. And I am not a journalist, so nothing to worry about.

RD: Oh, but anyway, quick! I need to go for the team management meeting.

Me: Is Ganguly part of the meeting?

RD: Ofcourse not!!!

Me: Just curious who will play in the side Rahul, is there a possibility that Laxman will be dropped?

RD: Laxman? Dropped? It is well known that we two bat really well together and have world record partnerships, there is no question of dropping VVS!

Me: Oh, then Yuvraj gets the axe?

RD: Hey look, Yuvi is in excellent form and his fielding is a big plus. No thoughts about dropping him. But you aren’t a journalist are you?

Me: No no no, am just a simple cricket fan. So, if VVS and Yuvi play, that leaves no place for Dada!

RD: But why do you say that?

Me: Oh Rahul, we know it better than anyone, you guys wouldn’t be using Ganguly as a bowler for the games and drop Pathan or Agarkar, will you.

RD: Ofcourse not, but Ganguly is playing!

Me: Huh? Ok ok, but then are you playing 7 batsman a wicket keeper……….

RD: Look I need to go. And Ganguly will playing. Finally I get the opportunity to even scores with Ganguly!!! He will be the WICKET KEEPER!!!!!!!! Revenge finally for me for having made me keep wickets in the ODI's!!! HA HA HAA!!!!

She asked, "What are all those clocks?"

God answered, "Those are Lie Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie
Clock.

Every Time you lie, the hands on your clock will move."



"Oh", Said Rabri, "Who's clock is that??

"Thats Gautam Buddha's. The hands have never moved."


"And whose clock is that?"

"That's Abraham Lincoln's clock. The hands have only moved twice,

telling us that Abraham only told 2 lies in his entire life."


Rabri asked, "Where's my Laloo's clock?"

"Laloo's clock is in my office",

one more from me...this is very different from the run of the mill 'blonde jokes',

Texans are very smart, esp, the blondes..

Amy, a blonde Texan city girl, marries a Texas rancher.
One morning, on his way out to check on the cows the rancher says to Amy: "The artificial insemination man is coming over to impregnate one of our cows today. I drove a nail into the two-by-four just above the cow's stall in the barn. You show him where the cow is when he gets here, okay?"
So the rancher leaves for the fields.

After a while, the artificial insemination man arrives and knocks on the front door. Amy takes him down the barn.
They walk along a long row of cows and when she sees the nail, she tells him: "This is the one..... right here."

Terribly impressed by what he seemed to think just might be another dizzy blonde, the man asks, "Tell me little lady, how did you know this is the cow to be bred?"

"That's simple. By the nail over its stall," Amy explains very confidently.
Then the man asks, "What's the nail for?"
She turns to walk away, and with complete confidence, says: "I guess it's to hang your pants on......"

Officer: You what?

Older Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.

The Officer looks at the woman and slowly backs away to his car and calls for back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.



Officer 2: Ma'am, could you step out of your vehicle please! The woman steps out of her vehicle.



Older woman: Is there a problem sir?

Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and murdered the owner.

The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it to the officer.

The officer examines the license. He looks quite puzzled.

A mother is taking her little girl to her friend's house for a play date.

On the way the little girl says, "Mommy,how old are you?"

The mother replied, *"Honey, you are not supposed to ask a lady her age, it's not polite."

"OK", the little girl says, "How much do you weigh?"

"Now really," the mother says, "those are personal questions and are really none of your business."

Undaunted, the little girl asks, "Why did you and Daddy get a divorce?"

"That is enough questions, young lady, honestly!"

The exasperated mother drops her daughter off at her friends to play.

"My Mom won't tell me anything about her," the little girl says to her friend.

"Well," says the friend, "all you need to do is look at her drivers' license. It is like a report card, and has everything on it."

Later that night the little girl says to her mother, "I know how old you are.......you're 32."

The mother is surprised and asks, "How did you find that out?"

"I also know that you weigh 140 pounds."

The mother is past surprised and shocked now. "How in heaven's name did you find that out?"

"And," the little girl says triumphantly, "I know why you and daddy got a divorce."

"Oh really?" the mother asks. "Why?"

This case happened in a hospital's Intensive care ward where Patients always died in the same bed and on all Sunday morning at 11a.m, regardless of their medical condition.

This puzzled the doctors and some even thought that it had something to do with the supernatural. No one could solve the mystery as to why the deaths took place at 11 AM.

So a world-wide expert team was constituted and they decided to go down to the ward to investigate the cause of the incidents. So on the next Sunday morning few minutes before 11 a.m. all doctors and nurses nervously waited outside the ward to see for themselves
what the terrible phenomenon was all about. Some were holding crosses, prayer books and other holy objects to ward off evil........
Just when the clock struck 11...

and then......




then.....

Don Quixote
A woman went to a pet shop and immediately spotted a large beautiful parrot. There was a sign on the cage that said £50.00!

"Why so little," she asked the pet store owner.

The owner looked at her and said, "Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of prostitution, and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff."

The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird anyway.

She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something.

The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, "New house, new madam."

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought "that's not so bad."

When her two teenage daughters returned from school the bird saw them and said, "New house, new madam, new girls."

The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation.

Moments later, the woman's husband Alex, came home from work.

The bird looked at him and said, "Hi Alex"...

Rahul Gupta

This board was started with the intention of letting people post jokes, inspirational messages, and any other message 'not directly related to business.' Rajaram has made good usage of this board. Kudos to him! I sure hope he finds his friend whom he's trying to get in touch with.

Meanwhile, here's a good "FORWARD".... (I generally don't send forwards, but this is a damn good one!)

I want to thank all my friends and other unknown
people who have forwarded chain
letters to me in 2003, 2004 & 2005 and 2006.

Because of your kindness:
I stopped drinking Coca-Cola after I found out that
it's good only for removing
toilet stains.

I stopped going to the movies for fear of sitting on a
needle infected with AIDS

I smell like a wet dog since I stopped using
deodorants because they cause
cancer.

I also stopped answering the phone for fear that they
may ask me to dial a
stupid number and then I get a phone bill from hell
with calls to Uganda ,
Singapore and Tokyo.

I also stopped drinking water outside for fear that I
will get sick from the rat
shit and urine.

When I go to parties, I don't look at any girl, no
matter how hot she is, for
fear that she will take me to a hotel, drug me, then
take my kidneys and leave
me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.

I also donated all my savings to the Amy Bruce
account. A sick girl that was
about to die in the hospital about 7,000 times. (Poor
girl! she's been 7 since
1993...)

My free Nokia phone never arrived and neither did the
free passes for a paid
vacation to Disneyland.

Made some Hundred wishes before forwarding those Dalai
Lama, Ganesh Vandana,
Tirupathi Balaji pics etc..
Now most of those "Wishes" are already married (to
someone else)!

If ORKUT / YAHOO / HOTMAIL deletes my account, it doesn't matter BUT
PLEASE DON'T SEND me "Orkut / Yahoo / Hotmail
is deleting accounts: Due to sudden rush..." Otherwise
I'll delete my E-Mail
account!

IMPORTANT NOTE:
If you do not send this e-mail to at least 913760
people in the next 10 seconds,
a bird will shit on your head today at 6:30 p.m.

Give me a break!!

Nov 24, 2006 4:53 pmWhy Newton committed suicide? [re: Tickle your funny bone!]#

Rahul Gupta
Hi All,

Here's another funny one that came through the email:

Once, Newton came to India and watched a few Tamil
movies that had his head spinning. He was convinced
that all his logic and laws in physics were just a
huge pile of junk and apologized for everything he had
done.

In the movie of Rajanikanth, Newton was confused to
such an extent that he went Paranoid. Here are a few
scenes ---

1) Rajanikanth has a Brain Tumor which, according to
the doctors can't be cured and his death is imminent.
In one of the fights, our great Rajanikanth is shot in
the head. To everybody's surprise, the bullet passes
through his ears taking away the tumor along with it
and he is cured! Long Live Rajanikanth!

2) In another movie, Rajanikanth is confronted with 3
gangsters.Rajanikanth has a gun but unfortunately only

one bullet and a knife.

Guess, what he does?

He throws the knife at the middle gangster & shoots
the bullet towards the knife. The knife cuts the
bullet into 2 pieces, which kills both the gangsters
on each side of the middle gangster & the knife kills
the middle one.

3) Rajanikanth is chased by a gangster. Rajanikanth
has a revolver but no bullets in it. Guess, what he
does. Nah? not even in your remotest imaginations.

He waits for the gangster to shoot. As soon as the
gangster shoots, Rajanikanth opens the bullet
compartment of his revolver and catches the bullet.

Then, he closes the bullet compartment and fires his
gun.

Bang... the gangster dies...

This was too much for our Newton to take! He was
completely shaken and decided to go back. But he
happened to see another movie for one last time, and
thought that at least one movie would follow his
theory of physics. The whole movie goes fine and
Newton is happy that all in the world hasn't changed.

Oops, not so fast!

The 'climax' finally arrives.

Rajanikanth gets to know that the villain is on the
other side of a very high wall. So high that
Rajanikanth can't jump even if he tries like one of
those superman techniques that our heroes normally
use. Rajanikanth has to desperately kill the villain
because it's the climax. (Newton dada is smiling since
it is virtually impossible?)

Rajanikanth suddenly pulls two guns from his pockets.
He throws one gun in the air and when the gun has
reached above the height of the wall, he uses the
second gun and shoots at the trigger of the first gun
in air. The first gun fires off and the villain is
dead.

Newton commits suicide...

;o)

Rahul.

Jim and Mary were both patients in a Mental Hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sunk to the bottom & stayed there. Mary promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out.

When the medical director became aware of Mary's heroic act he immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered her to be mentally stable.

When he went to tell Mary the news he said, "Mary, I have good news & bad news.

The good news is you're being discharged because since you were able to jump in and save the life of another patient, I think you've regained your senses.

The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead."

Mary replied "He didn't hang himself; I put him there to dry."

A man boards a Jet Airways airplane Delhi to Mumbai and takes his seat.

As he settles in, he glances up and sees a very beautiful woman boarding the plane. He soon realizes she's heading straight towards his seat. Lo and behold, she takes the seat right beside his. Eager to strike up a conversation, he asks "Business trip or vacation?"

She turns, smiles, and says, "Business. I'm going to the annual Sexologist's Convention."

He swallows hard. Here is the most gorgeous woman he has ever seen, sitting next to him, and she's a sexologist!
Struggling to contain his excitement and maintain his composure, he calmly asks, "What's your business role at this convention?"

"Lecturer," she says, "I use my experience to debunk some of the popular myths about sexuality."

"Really?" he says, swallowing hard. "What m-m-m-myths are those?"

Well," she explains, "one popular myth is that Negro men are the best endowed when, in fact, it's the Tamilian who is most likely to possess that trait. Another popular myth is that French men are the best lovers, when actually it is the Bengali. However, we have found that the best potential lover in all categories is the Sardarji."

Suddenly, the woman becomes a little uncomfortable and blushes. "I'm sorry," she says, "I shouldn't be discussing this with you. I don't even know your name!"

"Venkatraman!" the man blurts. "Venkatraman Mukherjee ! .. But my friends call me Santa Singh!"

A Sardarji and an American are seated next to each other on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The American asks if he would like to play a fun game.

The Sardarji, tired, just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.

The American persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He says, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me five dollars, and vice versa."

Again, he declines and tries to get some sleep.

The American, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5,and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."

This catches the Sardarji's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment, agrees to the game.

The American asks the first question: "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The Sardarji doesn't say a word, reaches into his wallet,pulls out a $5.00 bill, and hands it to the American.

"Okay," says the American, "your turn".

He asks, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?"

The American, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer & searches all his preferences........no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the Internet and the Library of Congress... no answer.

Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all his friends and coworkers but to no avail.

After an hour, he wakes the Sardarji and hands him $500.

The Sardarji thanks him and turns back to get some more sleep.

The American, who is more than a little miffed, stirs the Sardarji and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"

Without a word, the Sardarji reaches into his purse,hands the american $5,and goes back to sleep.

The Eighteen Bottles

I had eighteen bottles of whiskey in my cellar and was told by my wife to empty the contents of each and every bottle down the sink, or else... I said I would and proceeded with the unpleasant task. I withdrew the cork from the first bottle and pured the contents down the sink with the exception of one glass, which I drank. I then withdrew the cork from the second bottle and did likewise with it, with the exception of one glass, which I drank. I then withdrew the cork from the thrid bottle and poured the whiskey down the sink which I drank. I pulled the cork from the fourth bottle down the sink and poured the bottle down the glass, which I drank. I pulled the bottle from the cork of the next and drank one sink out of it, and threw the rest down the glass. I pulled the sink out of the next glass and poured the cork down the bottle. Then I corked the sink with the glass, bottled the drink and drank the pour. When I had everything emptied, I steadied the house with one hand, counted the glasses, corks, bottles, and sinks with the other, which were twent-nine, and as the houses came by I counted them again, and finally I had all the houses in one bottle, which I drank. I'm not under tha affluence of incohol as some tinkle peep I am. I'm not half as thunk as you might drink. I fool so feelish I don't know who is me, and the drunker I stand here, the longer I get.

ABBOTT: What about Windows?

Aug 07, 2008 5:01 amHow to Play Fake Lead Guitar#

Kaveriappa M.P
Culled from http://guitar.about.com/c/ht/00/07/How_Play_Fake_Lead0962934246.htm. Please reply to the post with your smileys!

Have you always wanted to play fancy guitar solos like those guys in glam rock bands, but don't actually play guitar? Here's how to do it... no experience required!

Difficulty Level: Easy Time Required: 10 minutes

Here's How:

1. Scour your closet for clothes that haven't fit in years, and make them fit. The tighter the better. Baby oil might be essential for the application and removal of these clothes.
2. Accessorize! Silk scarves are a must for the serious lead guitarist.
3. Tease hair. Apply hairspray liberally.
4. Repeat step 3.
5. Make-up isn't just for women anymore! Remember... foundation first, then blush and eyeliner.
6. You'll need an electric guitar. Any will do, but the flashier the better. They more they look at the guitar, the less they'll look at your fingers.
7. Turn your attention towards your gear: all amp dials should be set to 11. If you can't play well, you can at least play loud.
8. When not playing, strut confidently about the stage with your hands on your hips. (see: Young, Angus)
9. Facial expressions are important! The best guitarists will, in the course of a solo, appear as though they're deep in concentration, while at other times appear constipated.
10. Pick a note, and play it aggressively and repeatedly. Be sure to constantly shake guitar violently. If this doesn't go over well, explain you're playing a Sonic Youth cover.
11. Occasionally look at your hands and appear completely surprised and amused by what you're playing. (see: Van Halen, Edward)
12. If anything goes terribly wrong, glare at other members in the band. This will lead the audience to believe the others are to blame for the awful racket.
13. One foot on stage... the other on monitor.


Tips:

1. Ocassionally, you'll come across audience members who don't appreciate your music. You'll need to announce at that point you are embarking on a 'free-form jazz odyssey'. This will lead them to believe they just 'don't get it'.

This one's not just for Punjabis but for all those who have faced 'Punjlish'.


A is for Aiscreame

B is for Backside, and it has nothing to do with your bums. It is an instruction to go to the rear of a building, or block, or shop or whatever.

C is for Cloney and it’s not a process for replicating sheep, nor is its first name George. It is merely an area where people live e.g. 'Defence Cloney'.

E is for Expanditure, the spending of money

F is for Fackade, and even though it sounds like a bad word it is actually just the front of a building (with backside being the back, of course).

G is for Gaddi, and the way a Punjabi can pilot his gaddi puts any F1 driver to shame. (If the Grand Prix does come to Delhi there's no way Hamilton, Alonso or Kimi can overtake Balvinder, Jasvinder or Sukhvinder's taxi.)

H is for 'Ho Jayega Ji', and the moment you hear that you have to be careful because you can be reasonably sure it's not going to happen.

I is for Intezaar, and to know more about it see P.

J is for Jutt, which every Punjabi seems to be.

K is for Khanna, Khurana, etc, the Punjabi equivalent of the Joneses (e.g.'Keeping up with the Khuranas ji')

L is for Loin, the king of the jungle

M is for 'Mrooti', the car that an entire generation of Punjabis were in love with.

N is for 'No Problem Ji.' To find out how that works see H.

O is for Oye, which can be surprise (Oyye!), a greeting (Oyy!), anger (OYY!) or pain (Oy oy oy...).

P is for Punj Mint, and no matter how near (1 km) or far (100 km) a Punjabi is from you he always says he'll reach you in punj mint (5 minutes...).

Q is for Queue, a word completely untranslatable into Punjabi.

R is for Riks, and a Punjabi is always prepared to take one (risk), even if the odds are against him.

S is for Sweetie, Sunny, Simmi and Sonu, who seem to own half the cars in Delhi . (The other half by their Pappas - like 'Sweetie de Pappa di Gaddi')

T is for the official bird of Punjab : Tandoori Chicken.

U is for when you lose your sex appeal and become 'Uncle-ji'

V is for VIP phone numbers @ Rs 15 lakh and counting.

W is for Whan, as in 'Whan are you coming, ji?'

X is for the many X-rated words that flow freely in Punjabi conversations.

Y is for 'You nonsense', when anger replaces vocabulary in a shouting match.

Z is for Zindagi which every Punjabi knows how to live to the fullest.

Stevie Wonder is playing his first gig in Hong Kong and the place is packed to the rafters. In a bid to break the ice with his
new audience, he asks if anyone would like him to play a request.

A little Chinese guy jumps out of his seat in the first row and shouts
at the top of his voice, 'Play a jazz chord! Play a jazz chord!'

Amazed that this Chinese guy knows about the jazz influences in his varied career, the blind impresario starts to play an E minor scale and then goes into a difficult jazz melody for about 10 minutes. When
he finishes the whole place goes wild.

The little guy jumps up again and shouts 'No, no, play a jazz chord! Play a jazz chord!'

A bit annoyed by this, Stevie, being the professional that he is, dives straight into a jazz improvisation with his band around the B flat minor chord and really tears the place apart. Again the crowd
goes wild at this impromptu show of his technical expertise.

The little guy jumps up again. 'No, no. Play a jazz chord! Play a jazz chord!'

Stevie Wonder is really annoyed this time. So he calls out to the little Chinese guy, 'OK, wise guy. You come up here and do it.'

And so the guy jumps up onto the stage, takes hold of the mike and starts to sing:

'A jazz chord to say I love you
An' I mean it from the bottom of my heart...

Shivaji Jammalmadugu
As three travelers crossed the mountains of the Himalaya, they discussed the importance of putting into practice everything they had learned on a spiritual plane. They were so engrossed in their conversation that it was only late at night that they realized that all they had with them was a piece of bread.

They decided not to discuss who deserved to eat it; since they were pious men, they left the decision in the hands of the gods. They prayed that, during the night, a superior spirit should indicate who should receive the food.

The following morning, the three men rose together at sunrise.

"This is my dream," said the first traveler. "I was taken to places I had never visited before, and enjoyed the sort of peace and harmony I have sought in vain during my entire life on earth. In the midst of this paradise, a wise man with a long beard said to me: "you are my chosen one, you never sought pleasure, always renounced all things. And, in order to prove my allegiance to you, I should like you to try a piece of bread."

"That’s very strange," said the second traveler. "For in my dream, I saw my past of sanctity and my future as a master. As I gazed at that which is to come, I found a man of great wisdom, saying: "You are in greater need of food than your friends, for you shall have to lead many people, and will require strength and energy."

Then the third traveler said:

"In my dream I saw nothing, went nowhere, and found no wise men. However, at a certain hour during the night, I suddenly woke up. And I ate the bread."

The other two were furious:

"And why didn't you call us before making such a personal decision?"

"How could I? You were both so far away, finding masters and having such holy visions! Yesterday we discussed the importance of putting into practice that which we learn on a spiritual plane. In my case, God acted quickly, and had me awake dying of hunger!"


Friendship is not measured when both take care of each other, it is measured when one ignores and the other
still continues............................God Bless All

Raghav BPX
Question : What is the truest definition of Globalization ?

Answer : Princess Diana's death.

Question : How come ?

Answer :An English princess with an

Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a

French tunnel, driving a

German car with a

Dutch engine, driven by a

Belgian who was drunk on

Scottish whisky: followed closely by

Italian Paparazzis in

Japanese motorcycles; treated by an

American doctor, using

Brazilian medicines.

And moreover this is sent to you by an

Indian ,

using
American

(Bill Gates's) technology, and you're probably reading this on your computer, that use

Taiwanese chips, and a

Korean monitor, assembled by

Bangladeshi workers in a

Singapore plant, transported by

Pakistan lorry-drivers, hijacked by

Indonesians , unloaded by

Sicilian longshoremen, and trucked to you by

Mexican illegals..... That, my friend, is

'' Globalization ''
Hope u got it....???

The European Commission has announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as 'Euro-English'...

In the first year,’s’ will replace the soft 'c'. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favour of 'k'. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome 'ph' will be replaced with 'f'. This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent 'e' in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing 'th' with 'z' and 'w' with 'v'.
AND ……….. Finally….!!!

You might not have known this, but a lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female.

Here are some examples:


FREEZER BAGS: They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

PHOTOCOPIERS: These are female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again.

They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong Buttons.


TIRES: Tires are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated

HOT AIR BALLOONS: Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their butt.


SPONGES: These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.

WEB PAGES:
Female, because they're constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.


TRAINS: Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.

EGG TIMERS: Egg timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS: Male, because in the last 5000 years, they've hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.


THE REMOTE CONTROL: Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know which buttons to push, he just keeps trying
